When You Preach a Pick-Six

from Replant Podcast Hosted by North American Mission Board

What should a pastor do after preaching a sermon that didn't connect? In this episode of the Revitalize & Replant podcast, Mark Clifton, Mark Hallock, and Dan Hurst discuss how pastors can respond after preaching a sermon that feels like a "pick-six." Every preacher has messages that don't land the way they hoped, but one difficult Sunday doesn't define a lifetime of faithful ministry. In this conversation, you'll learn: Why the text—not the preacher—deserves the spotlight Why every sermon doesn't have to be a home run How faithful pastors can recover after a discouraging sermon Why your weaknesses and failures don't limit God's work How God's Word never returns void Why one bad (or even one great) sermon doesn't define your ministry If you've ever left the pulpit feeling discouraged, this episode offers biblical encouragement for pastors committed to faithful preaching, church revitalization, and long-term ministry.
